On Thursday _last, pursuant to a Re4nisition, numerously and respectably signed, and in com pliance with the appointment of the Right Wor shipful the Mayor, a Public Meeting of the Gen try, Clergy, and Tradesmen of this City, was held in the Council-Room of the Exchange, for the purpose of taking into consideration the propriety of addressing his Royal Highness the PRINCE Ric- Getrr on the lamented demise of pur late exem plary QUEEN. About twelve o'clock, the Chief Magistrate took the Chair, and steed the ottject of the meeting. WILLIAM HARIVOO6 FOLLIOTT, Esq. then rose, and addressed the Chairman in the follow ing words : MR. MAYOR, I very much regret that some other Gentleman than myself wns not deputed to make the motion that I shall have the honour to submit to your consideration before I sit down,—that of propos ing a dutiful and loyal Address of Condolence from the inhabitants of this City, to his Royal Highness the Prince Regent, on the decease of her Majesty, the Queen of England. I have en deavoured to get other persons, who would have addressed you on the present occasion much more eloquently than is in my power ; however, I do not shrink from the task, feeling -it incumbent upon me, from being the principal means of call ing this Meeting, and procuring so many respect able signatures to the Requisition to the Mayor, on the occasion ; at the same time, I am free to .confess, that I will succumb to no one in loyalty and attachment to the Sovereign of these realms. Providence has so constructed the human mind, that no one can pass through this life without considerable error, and those who attain a late period of it, whiCh was the case of her late Ma jesty, are subject to much ;—however, I have the pleasure to observe, that the principal charge made against the Queen, which was that of ava rice, is totally done away, from the circumstance of her dying not leaving greater assets than 40001. exclusive of her diamonds, that are certainly con siderable, and I believe estimated at about a mil lion sterling, and her wardrobe, which was con siderably the greatest in Europe. With respect to her virtues, they shone eminently conspicuous throughout a very long reign ; and the manner in which she was introduced to this country, slid infinite honour to his Majesty and herself. What; influenced the King's mind first to approve of the Princess of Mecklemburgh Strelitz, was a letter, which was highly creditable to her bead and heart, written at a very early petiod of her life, to Frederick the Greif, 'fling of . " Prussia, vvhich made so great an impression on his Majesty, that he gave that Princess the preference, as a wife, to any of the beautiful and accomplished Princesses of the Protestant Courts of Europe. Her late Ma jesty's greatness of mind and amiableness of dis position have been more apparent since her arrival in this country (at the early age of 17 y?-ars), from her attention to the purity of the Coort of St. James, at a time when many other Courts cf Europe were plunged in great licentiousness, par ticularly that of France, which materially led to the late awful Revolution. I shall repeat an anec dote, which is generally knowa. but possibly some here are not aware of it. When a holy of the Court solicited her Majesty to re-instate in her good graces a female of superihr rank, who had trausgiessed the bounds that chastity prescribe, on being asked what answer she was to return her, emphatically replied, " tell her you dare not mention it to the Queen of England." -Greatly have been gratified by the loyalty displayed throughout the country on the intelligtece of her Majesty's decease, and I believe no place has ex ceeded the loyal and onment city of Chester, in this respect. Llsr M.njesty's charit.es were exten sive. A most loving and dutiful wile she has bet n to her Royal Consort, for upwards of 56 years, contributing to his happintess and enjoyment abets in health, and soothing, by her kiwi attehriow s his sick conch. Her affectionate and tender care of a numerous and fine _family, the Princes and Princesses of these scalars, is beyond all praise.— I congratulate the country on our being in pos session of the great• blessings of peace and plenty ; the former I believe and trust will, by the blessing of Divine Providence, be lasting,—but I cautions it against. the jacobinical principles, which are too prevalent, Greatly am I pleased with the disap pohltment Sir Francis Burriert met with, in his, reception at the neighbouring towel of Liverpool, a few days since, where, I understand, a company of three hundred gentlemen were expected to sit' down to dinner, and not more than one hundred arrived, otherwise than those that were sought, out for amongst inferior classes, to fill up the tables. The Baronet's . appearing in e blue coat, when I believe every other person in the room was in decent mourning for her late Majesty, not excepting even the waiters, was highly indecorous.• I have heard of no Captain iVlacheath who took off the portmanteau, in which this black coat was deposited. I believe the circumstance of Lord Derby and Lord Sefton's non-attendance at the dinner, which did them great credit, precluded the Baronet remaining even that night at Liverpool, to repose his weary limbs. I avail' myself of this opportunity of expressing my ideas on Parliamen tary Returns, which are decidedly against the absurd notion of Annual Parliaments and Univer sal Suffrage. Be assured, Sir, teat if once the Legislature of this Country SAnct ion this Measure, the Monarchical part of the Constitution will uct last six nroaths. For agradual and temperate reforms in Parliament, I arms an advocate. Mr. Pitt, at 1111 early period of his life, advocated a reform in Parliament, but afterwards deprecated it, it cons sequence of tire kingdom h. ing involved in the late horrible war, on the issue of which our ex. istenae •as a nation depended, alledging for such a measure that it was not a proper time ; but now that the contest is decided, I assert that this is the proper time for a gradual reform in the Commons [louse of Parliament ; for is it reason able or right, that the County Palatine of Ches ter, including this city, should send only four Members to Parliament, and the County of Corn stall, forty-tour ! The great towns of Manches ter, Birmingham, and others, should have sepa- rate Representatives, and many of the Boroughs done away with at the same time. ; Mark me well, Sir ; 1 would have it done with great caution, and very deliberately ; for with all the present errors • in our Constitution, we are at the present day, the greatest and most honourable nation that exists on the face of the earth. • With regard to Sinecure Places, I would have them done away with, as far as is consistent with the honour and safety of the country. I approve of the present Administration, which has conduct ed the State through an arduous contest, and se cured for it an honourable peace. They h:tve al ready made, and are still making, great retrench ments. I particularly recommend all Gentlemen of con. sequence, ahilities, and property, in the Unite►[ Kingdom, to unite,. for the purpose of suppres sing, by every means in their power, the spirit of Jacobinism, now too much prevailing, the sup porters of which arc ever on the alert ; and not to buoy up themselves with the idea of there be. ing no danger ; their Constitution and prope'rty are worth their exertions to protect ; and now that we ate at peace with all Europe, and near ly so with all the test of the world, let not our internal enemies disturb our domestic peace. I shall conclude, Sir, with retnrning von, and the Gentlemen present, my•sincere thanks for the attention with which! have been heard ; and do ing myself the honour of moving, that a dutiful and loyal Address of Condolence be presented to his Royal Highness the Prince Regent, from the inhabitants or this City, on the death of her late Majesty the Queen of England, and that the same be signed by the Mayor, on behalf u the Meeting, and transmitted to Lord Viscount Sid mouth by this night's mail. Mr. PREBENDARY MADDOCK seconded the Ad.. dress. Atter some few remark's by SOON HILL, Esq. on its tinustoil length, it was unanimously adopt. ed, and ordered to be transmitted to the Secre tary of State, for presentation. Thanks were then voted to the Mayor for call ing the Meeting, and it immediately dissolved. NORWICH UNION FIRE INSURANCE.
